HARDCORE NEWS 8 "blow me down"


I've been following these dudes steps for some time and by now they made quite a name for themselves, Richmond's legitimate sons TOUGH LUCK. After 2 demos and an EP they hit back with another batch of heaviness out now by Solid Bond Records, embarking in the same line as Soul Search did in their last record!



Wrong Idea is a side project by 2 dudes at STEP ASIDE, Arizona youth crew on full effect!
This artwork reminds of a classic one, maybe Brotherhood? Anyway if you liked Right Idea you will definetily like Wrong Idea, HA!
(official download link HERE)



This totally passed under my radar and probably under yours, swedish OUT OF VOGUE new full-length "The Welfare Years" released by themselves, cool as fuck! For fans of CIV, Seein' Red and Dag Nasty.



Still in Sweden, AGENT ATTITUDE also has new songs on the go and they sound snottier than ever!! Time to wear that B'last t-shirt and do some outlaw skating.



CLOBBERIN' TIME's new recordings blew my mind, because this is one of those rare moments where a band from Brazil plays NYHC and its not cheesy! Powerful breakdowns and no frills, just 2 tracks at the moment that I keep listening on and on.



If you haven't heard Six Feet Under Records has a bunch of new records to be released soon: 50 Lions 7", Minus/Warbrain Split and everyones favorite WRITTEN OFF 7":

HARDCORE NEWS 3 "in yo face"


Turn your speakers up, Hardcore News is back to bring about some fine new releases, sure to please regular visitors of this blog. Most of these are fairly new bands, fortifying the scene all around!

From Milan/Bologna comes WE'RE RIGHT! 80's pissed youth crew done right. Excellent 7-songs demo entitled 'Alert!' out now by Don't Need Records on casette.


Richmond's BREAK AWAY, plays also 80's youth crew revelation style and has a fresh debut EP 'For Life' on MindRot Records. For now Dowload their demo and hear a sample from 'For Life'. 




Also from River City, TOUGH LUCK will be releasing a new EP 'The Fifth Column' on Last Anthem Records. These youngsters will certainly do some ruckus. Take a listen to their title track and tell me otherwise!

Features vocal guests from David Wood (Down To Nothing).





This one made me throw my arms windmill style, so be aware for RUDE AWAKENING, MA
ssachusetts on full effect babe! Demo on Arrest Records. Features players from Death Before Dishonor, Hammer Bros.





 

BLINDSIDE brings a new breath in the Belgium hc scene, as well keeps the blood pumping at Powered Records hq.

My friend Arty (Strainght On View) made a player with one the songs from their upcoming debut EP.

BLINDSIDE - Blindside by straightonviewblog


In the swedish front 2 excellent records are out, going under many radars out there. Check both their bandcamps for FREE downloads!


OUT OF VOGUE delivers a sound that is being compared to CIV!! Hear it and take your own conclusions. Although the band is new the members have some baggage, playing in bands such as EYES SHUT and Subject To Change, now they are back with a 4 songs EP Out now on Salad Days.



  After a very well received split with BALANCE, HÅRDA TIDER put out (in 2010 actually) a full-length all sang in swedish. 10 songs of abrasive-thrashy-hardcore. Be sure to check tracks 4 and 8, superb!!
